I view them embracing federation as a good thing.
I also view it as important for the instances I wish to follow to never federate with them.
Given a descendant of this technology has the potential for seizure moderation, which is something my sister basically will need as the medication she uses will inevitably require doses that would destroy her liver or leave her all but vegetative. It's super interesting from a technical aspect and hyper-relevant.
However, given Musk's antics especially as of late? I wouldn't trust him to not accidentally intentionally kill people, or use it as a way to have an unremovable keylogger with the end goal of 'Oh those are some nice eyes you've got there,' or 'lovely able to live without going into convulsions isn't it? It'd be a shame if that changed.'
Dude's political flambaiting. Flag and move on.
Eh. I'll let the younger generation have their fun. These days I'm more interested in the technical aspects than the actual content.
That's kinda what you find out over time and as you see platforms crumble.
the platform itself is just a wrapper for the discussions. If you can find somewhere with those discussions? The wrapper is irrelevant.
Buttered, seasalt, carmel, or are you going full crackerjacks?
i'm going crackerjacks on this one. Went seasalt for twitter.
Dude, my bullshit meter blew its fuses and the magic smoke's poured out.
'What's Scum?'
'bankers, politicians, cattle kings. Scum.'
Also, as a disabled internet user, those APIs are of value for the sake of accessability. Given Reddi'ts own app is, and forgive me to use technical jargon here, steaming pile of bullshit even for those with perfect vision?
Yea fuck you too spez.
I come from the era of the BBS. The PHP Forum. SlashDot, and Digg. I come from online games ranging from EverQuest, to Multiverse Crisis MUSH, to Moments in Tyme, to Warframe, and More. I have walked messenger clients from the times of AiM, IRC and Yahoo, to Skype, Steam, and Discord.
In my thirty years of being online, this is not the first petty tyrant claiming that upset users are the problem rather than taking a long hard look in the mirror. This will not be the last.
The best we can do is grab popcorn and watch as his platform dies. He won't admit to making any mistakes. Especially with money involved because he's under the deluded belief that showing any weakness invites a price drop from investors. Yet this behavior? It REEKS of weakness and insecurity.
Migrate and Move On. the rest is just playing u/spez's game.
Eeh. I'm just going to keep deleting it instead.
For me it is the message more than anythin because otherise they'll just whine 'you'll be back.'
